		There should be a total economic dependence on the neighbouring urban centre where most of the satellite town residents seek employment or are employed and a distance municipal administration for the satellite town is preferred.
		It is therefore a good development that the FCTA had actualised the planned satellite towns in the FCT in view of the increasing population of the city, vis-à-vis existing infrastructure, services and employment opportunities in the city.
		Development of the satellite towns should be premised on public-private sector partnership approach, especially in the light of global interest in the country as a result of the return to democratic governance.

	Testimony of GENE KIMMELMAN, Co-Director, Washington Office Consumers Union Before the Senate Judiciary Committee's ...
		Satellite TV is still priced out of the reach of most consumers, and the choice of cable providers is limited to the one company that managed to convince members of the town's decision board that they should be the sole cable providers for that town."
		With up-front costs (for the satellite dish and related installation charges) running three to five times the cost of installing cable, and lacking carriage of local broadcast channels, satellite TV has been unable to discipline pricing for the most popular cable services.
		The satellite TV industry has been enormously successful by focusing on high-end consumers who are willing (and able) to pay hundreds of dollars for a dish, want hundreds of channels, desire specialized programming (e.g., sports, movies) and are interested in higher quality (digital) signals.

		Section 25.104(b) presumes that any state or local regulation is unreasonable if it restricts the use of satellite antennas of two meters or less in diameter and that is located in any area where commercial or industrial uses are generally permitted by non-federal land-use regulation.
		In support of its waiver request, Steilacoom states that the Town was originally a seaport founded in 1851 and was the focal point of trade, transportation and government.
		As long as Steilacoom applies its restrictions to satellite antennas one meter or smaller in diameter in compliance with the historic preservation provisions of the OTARD rule, no waiver is necessary.

	Satellite City
		The general criterion for an object tobe a satellite is that the center of mass of the two objects is insidethe other object.
		There is no one standard international definitionof a city: the term may be used either for a town possessing city status; for an urban locality exceeding an arbitrary populationsize; for a town dominating other towns with particular regional economic or administrative significance.
		Although city can refer to an agglomeration including suburban and satellite areas, the term is not appropriate for a conurbation (cluster) of distinct urban places, nor for a wider metropolitan area including more than one city, each acting as a focus for parts of the area.

	Sea surface temperature fronts in the midlatitude South Atlantic revealed by using microwave satellite data
		Here, satellite microwave sensed sea surface temperature (SST) data, available from June 2002, are analysed for the existence of frontal gradients in the subtropical to subpolar South Atlantic with focus on the central to eastern region.
		The frontal locations and SST gradients in the southwest South Atlantic and in the Agulhas Current retroflection region obtained from this satellite data are consistent with those estimated previously from hydrographic observations.
		Evident in the satellite data is pronounced mesoscale variability in subtropical frontal features, particularly south of Africa, and extending west from the Agulhas Current retroflection to at least the Greenwich meridian, and in the southwest South Atlantic.

		In addition, as a condition of invoking protection under the rule from government, landlord, and association restrictions, a provider of fixed wireless service must ensure that customer-end antennas are labeled to give notice of potential RF safety hazards posed by these antennas.

		Asked on order forms to explain the uses of their purchases, operations officers of the different Arab armies replied the imagery was needed to locate ceasefire lines with Israel more precisely than had been possible with UN maps, the better to avoid misunderstandings that might spark border incidents.
		Arab military customers ordering satellite images of Israel did not ask for views of border regions but rather “blocks of territory.” In a transparent effort to compensate for their own lack of satellite technology, they requested imagery spanning the length and breadth of Israel plus Palestinian-controlled areas.
